Mid-Age Indoor Cats – Healthcare Information
Characteristics: Mid-cats are an average of 37-46yrs old in human years. They are sensible and steady. Some "wear and tear" issues can begin to present at this phase of life. Cats that roam outdoors know their territorial limits, but other cats and wildlife do not always respect their boundaries. All cats, even purebred cats where breeding has been considered, should be spayed or neutered before six years of age. Though it’s never too late to spay and neuter, it’s usually too late for cat breeders to plan for a successful breeding at this point.
Mid-age Indoor Cats are Prone
In addition to healthcare: Indoor cats with adequate enrichment may need to be encouraged to keep a regular exercise schedule. Cats are less able to adapt to changes in lifestyle, but can adapt if needed. Changes in home or consistency of schedule should be planned carefully if possible. Consider adding a small pet fountain to encourage water drinking and proper hydration.
Elevated safe zones in the house, where your cat can rest away from people/other animals, and maintaining a litter pan per cat plus one, should help maintain emotional and urological health. Maintain grooming & nutrition appropriate for your adult cat's breed and lifestyle. Quality food should be measured to prevent boredom, over-eating and obesity. Plan for a dental exam in the second part of the year.
